Emmy Winner Dies After Falling Off Balcony on Set of Mr. Rogers Movie

Glenn Weiss Wins Emmy, PROPOSES ON STAGE!

Barry, Game of Thrones and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel all had big nights at the 2018 Emmy Awards.


But no one had a bigger night than Glenn Weiss.


First, the heretofore little known director won Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special due to his work at the Academy Awards.


Then, he won the eternal love of girlfriend Jan Svendsen.



After hearing his name called, Weiss walked up to the stage and he thanked his daughters and friends at ABC. The acceptance started out as your typical speech.


From there, he started speak about his mother, who died just two weeks ago, telling the audience:


“Part of my heart is broken. I don’t think it will ever be repaired. But she’s in me and she always will be."


Weiss explained how his mother always believed in “finding the sunshine,” leading him to denote Svensen as “the sunshine in my life," as he continued:


"And Mom was right, don’t ever let go of your sunshine. You wonder why I don’t like to call you my girlfriend? Because I want to call you my wife."


At this word, the crowd erupted in a loud cheer and Svensen shouted "yes."


It really was an awesome moment.



Svendsen was quickly ushered up to the stage by Milo Ventimiglia and a few other stars until she reached the arms of Weiss.


As she was walking up, he joked that “I didn’t ask yet. I didn’t ask yet."


But once she was in front of him, Weiss pulled out his dad"s engagement ring and got down on one knee.


"Jan, I want to put this ring that my mom wore on your finger in front of all these people and in front of my mom and your parents watching from above. Will you marry me?" he asked.


And you can guess how she responded, right?



By saying YES!


Later on, backstage, the newly-engaged couple told reporters how they met 10 years ago and both have daughters and both produce television shows and how Jan had no idea this was going to happen.


“I had no suspicions whatsoever, I had no idea,” she said. “I really hoped he was going to dedicate the award to his mother, and he did, and then some.”


Really beautiful stuff.

Emmy Awards 2018: 14 Best, Wildest and Weirdest Moments


There was a proposal.


A surprise appearance by an icon.


And a reminder that Sandra Oh can be really funny.


Indeed, the 2018 Emmy Awards have come and gone — but the moments listed below will be discussed and analyzed for weeks to come.


Which was the weirdest? The most awkward? The funniest?


Scroll down and relive each and every one now!




1. Betty White Was There!


Betty white was there

Betty White made a surprise appearance at the 2018 Emmys, soaking in a standing ovation and telling the crowd: “Somebody said something the other day about the first lady of television and I took it as a big compliment. And then I heard her talking to her daughter a little later, ‘Yeah, she’s that old. She was the first one way, way back!"”



2. Sandra Oh for 2019 Emmys Host?

Oh is known for her dramatic roles, but she slayed while presenting alongside Andy Samberg, joking about her ex-boyfriend and about the whole La La Land disaster at the Oscars.



3. The Hosts with the Most… Racist Jokes?


Colin jost and michael che

Colin Jost and Michael Che were mediocre at best, but Che made negative headlines for joking that white people do not thank Jesus in their speeches. “Admit it! This is not funny! Only racist haters like Emmys host Michael Che would say the only white people who thank Jesus at award shows are Republicans and ‘ex-crackheads,"” wrote one social media user in response.



4. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Won Outstanding Comedy Series


Angry

We now take you live to Blackish star Anthony Anderson’s response…



5. Oh, Right, Someone Proposed!

Glenn Weiss did something on stage never before done in awards show history. And we have the video to prove it!



6. Henry Winkler Wins!


Henry winkler wins

This was somehow the legend’s first-ever Emmys win, and he ended his speech by telling his kids they can go to bed because “Daddy won!” (His kids are 35 and 38 years old, LOL.)

Emmy Rossum Stuns Fans, Announces Departure From Shameless

Emmy Rossum appears to be moving on.


The veteran actress, who has portrayed the main character of Fiona on Showtime’s Shameless since the very beginning of this mega hit, shared a lengthy post on Facebook today.


And it certainly makes it sound as if Rossum’s time on the series has come to an end.



“The opportunity to play Fiona has been a gift,” Rossum writes in one section of her message, continuing as follows:


“There are few characters – female or otherwise – as layered and dynamic. She is a mother lion, fierce, flawed and sexually liberated.


“She is injured, vulnerable, but will never give up. She is living in an economic depression, but refuses to be depressed. She is resourceful. She is loyal. She is brave.


“I knew it the second I read the pilot script, this was different, this was special. … Quite simply, the last eight years have been the best of my life.”


Including with her post a photo of many cast and crew member, Rossum made a point to single them out toward the end of her message, writing:


“I can say for certain that this cast and crew, who I’ve been have truly honored to work alongside, are world class. I am proud and I’m filled with gratitude.”




shameless cast


Shameless Season 9 premieres on Sunday, September 9 on Showtime.


It will be comprised of 14 episodes, as opposed to the typical 12, and divided into two parts; part two will debut on January 20, 2019 and include the show’s 100th installment.


Without coming specifically out and confirming her depature in exact words, Rossum – who made headlines recently for slamming Kim Kardashian and for publicizing her weight – concluded her post like this:


“I know you will continue on without me, for now. There is much more Gallagher story to be told. I will always be rooting for my family.


“Try not to think of me as gone, just think of me as moving down the block.”



The Golden Globe-nominated actress did not announce what she’ll be doing next.


And Showtime has not yet commented on this surprising piece of news.


But we’ve posted Rossum’s entire Facebook post on the subject below and we’ll let Shameless fans read it for themselves:


It’s hard thing to put into words, feelings. But I’m going to try.


This business is always an adventure, full of travel and opportunities to tell stories.



Usually as an actor, every few months, you travel to a new place, start a new project, build a new character, learn new rhythms, new inside jokes with your crew, make new friends.


Until “Shameless” came into my life 8 years ago, I led that kind of transient wonderful life of an actor.


And I never realized how much I actually craved the kind of continuity that this show has given me. And given all of us in the crew.


Season after season I’m amazed that our same crew comes back.


And it’s not just because it’s a wonderfully written, wonderfully layered show. There are these real connections, real friendships that bring us back season after season after season.



See, in real life, unlike Fiona, I’m an only child. I never had a big family. Being ensconced in that messy Gallagher family love is something I’d always dreamed of.


But even off set, it feels real. We’ve watched the kids grow up into the strong, talented, independent human beings that they are. I taught Emma to shave her legs. I was there when Ethan learned to drive.


Shanola and Jeremy and Joan and Bill danced at my wedding in New York last year. Our fearless leader John Wells thankfully held Sam and me up on those rickety chairs during the hora.


I’ve spent the Jewish holy days in temple with David Nevins and his wonderful wife and kids.


It really feels like a family.



This kind of stability, this family, has nurtured me and made feel safe enough to stretch and grow creatively.


The way John Wells has shepherded me as an actress, and more recently how he’s encouraged me wholeheartedly as a director and a writer, has been an honor and a privilege.


We have made over 100 hours of television. That’s no small feat.


There’s a new study that says it takes 100 hours to become friends with someone. The Gallaghers have been in people’s living rooms for 100 hours. So, it makes sense.


We can feel your connection to us, to these characters.



In the airport, in restaurants, on the street, when people call out “Hi Fiona” “Oh my god, it’s Lip” or “Screw you Frank!”… it feels good.


The opportunity to play Fiona has been a gift.


There are few characters — female or otherwise — as layered and dynamic. She is a mother lion, fierce, flawed and sexually liberated.


She is injured, vulnerable, but will never give up. She is living in an economic depression, but refuses to be depressed.


She is resourceful. She is loyal. She is brave. I knew it the second I read the pilot script, this was different, this was special.



I tirelessly prepped the audition with my coach Terry Knickerbocker. I walked to the appointment in the rain so I looked disheveled.


During my third audition, when I got the part IN the room, I literally jumped up and down screaming in joyous relief and disbelief.


Quite simply, the last eight years have been the best of my life.


Malcolm Gladwell says it takes 10,000 hours to become truly good at something. To become world class. Well by my calculation, 100 episodes, 7 days per episode (plus Chicago weeks), 12 hour days, we’re just at about 10,000 hours.


So I guess we’re finally good at this.



I can say for certain that this cast and crew, who I’ve been have truly honored to work alongside, are world class. I am proud and I’m filled with gratitude.


I know you will continue on without me, for now. There is much more Gallagher story to be told. I will always be rooting for my family. Try not to think of me as gone, just think of me as moving down the block.


With love, always.

Showtime Confirms: Yes, Emmy Rossum is Leaving Shameless

For Emmy Rossum, all good things must come to an end. 


In fact, one incredible thing already has:


The actress is finished filming Shameless.



In a stunning Facebook post Rossum shared on Thursday afternoon, the Golden Globe nominee explained her decision to leave this Showtime hit after nine seasons.


(Season 9, which will be comprised of two halves and 14 episodes, premieres on Sunday, September 9.)


Rossum thanked the cast and thanked the crew and said she knew the moment she read the first script that she wanted to play a woman as “resourceful, loyal and brave” as Fiona Gallagher.


“The opportunity to play Fiona has been a gift,” Rossum wrote, adding:


“There are few characters – female or otherwise – as layered and dynamic.


“She is a mother lion, fierce, flawed and sexually liberated. She is injured, vulnerable, but will never give up. She is living in an economic depression, but refuses to be depressed. She is resourceful.


“She is loyal. She is brave. I knew it the second I read the pilot script, this was different, this was special…


“Quite simply, the last eight years have been the best of my life.”



Technically, Rossum did not come directly out and say she was done with the series — but now Showtime has done that for her.


“We were saddened when Emmy Rossum let us know that the upcoming ninth season of Shameless would be her last,” Showtime Networks President of Programming Gary Levine said in a statement this evening.


He added:


“But we are filled with an overwhelming sense of joy and gratitude for Emmy’s inspired work on our series, of course in front of the camera but also behind it.


“Fiona Gallagher will always be one of Showtime’s iconic characters, and we applaud Emmy for bringing this character to life in such a natural, touching and fearless performance.


“On behalf of everyone at Showtime and her millions of fans, we thank you Emmy!”



Fiona basically served as the matriarch of the Gallagher household, due to the drinking problems and general behavioral problems of William H. Macy’s Frank.


As for why Rossum made this decision, she said the following to Entertainment Weekly in a follow-up interview:


I will never be saying goodbye to Fiona.


Fiona is a part of me and has been like every character is a part of you and you are a little bit part of them.


My Shameless family is really my second family and I’ve spent so much time with them – 10,000 hours – that it really feels like we’ve all grown up together.


I started on the show when I was 23 and now I’m not. [Laughs.] And it’s a wonderful, wonderful amount of time and I feel incredibly proud of everything we have created.


I’m just filled with gratitude for everyone’s hard work.



It sounds like it was simply time for Rossum to leave.


Nine seasons and 100-plus episodes is a very long time on a series, especially when you’re the lead.


This is how Rossum wrapped up her emotional Facebook post:


I can say for certain that this cast and crew, who I’ve been have truly honored to work alongside, are world class. I am proud and I’m filled with gratitude.


I know you will continue on without me, for now. There is much more Gallagher story to be told. I will always be rooting for my family. Try not to think of me as gone, just think of me as moving down the block.


With love, always.

Emmy Rossum Reveals Her Weight as Part of "I Weigh" Movement

Emmy Rossum is beautiful and talented, and has starred on television and in films.


In the past, she has used her voice to scold anti-Semitic Trump supporters. Now, she is lending her fame and platform to a very powerful movement.


She is sharing her weight, and the answer may surprise you.



Emmy took to Instagram to ask her fans and followers: “Want to know what I weigh?”


In case you’re thinking no thanks, I’m not that intrusive, know that she’s posting this herself.


And that second of all, there’s much more to this than a number on the scale. In fact, that is the whole point.


“Click on my stories,” Emmy encourages her followers. “@i_weigh BECAUSE YOU AE SO MUCH MORE THAN A NUMBER”


She tags I Weigh, which is a powerful campaign. And as you see her posts, you understand what the campaign is all about.






Emmy tells her followers that the scale, though a useful tool, does not reveal the be all and end all of a person’s value.


“During my life,” Emmy writes. “The scale has told me that I’ve gained and lost and gained and lost.”


It is, for everyone, an endless cycle of both gains and losses.


Emmy reveals that she has oscillated “somewhere in the range of 20 pounds. But that piece of metal doesn’t really know.”


“Here,” Emmy writes. “Is what I ACTUALLY WEIGH.”






Emmy then shares an image that lists her qualities — the substance of wh she is.


“3 best friends since kindergarten, drive, kindness, empathy,” Emmy lists.


“Makes friends with strangers, Jewish and proud, Daughter,” Emmy adds. “100+ hours of television.”


That’s not about watching TV — that means that she has appeared on 100 hours of television, which is true — honestly, her role on Shameless covered almost that much.


“The courage it takes everyday to overcome ptsd, one happy marriage, 3 episodes of television directed,” Emmy continues.


Emmy adds: “countless hours of therapy, one finished screenplay, and animal rescuer.”






She then shares an image that adds to that.


“See,” Emmy writes. “When you add up everything you are??”


You’re a lot more than how hard this planet’s gravity pulls you towards its center, that’s for sure.


Emmy writes: “The size of your thighs don’t really matter anymore do they?!”


“So join me in this,” Emmy says. “Show people what you are actually made of. Because you are so much more than a f–king number.”



Obviously, it is normal for weight to go up and down — but several pounds.


Factors like when you last ate, when you last went to the bathroom, how hydrated you are, and even the weather that day can change what the scale says about you.


Emmy and the I Weigh campaign are exactly right — that number on the scale does not tell you your value.


Some may cynically point out that Emmy Rossum is a famously gorgeous woman who has never in her life weighed anything outside of what society considers “extremely good” or “perfect.”


But she is lending her voice to a very good campaign, and her voice matters. Some people would sadly refuse to hear this from a woman twice her size.

Wendy Williams: I Deserve an Emmy More than ANYONE!!

There’s no better talk show host in the business than Wendy Williams … according to Wendy Williams.


So when the 2018 Emmy Award nominees were announced and Wendy received a whopping zero nominations, she was totally perplexed.


She just can’t understand how someone could watch her show and not shower her with accolades.



In an interview with Elle, Wendy Williams questions why she wasn’t nominated for an Emmy for her talk show.


“Who’s a better talk show host?!” Wendy asks.


We don’t think that she’s looking for answers; she would probably be offended by suggestions. She is asking this rhetorically.


“Don’t have one! Don’t have one!” Wendy insists. “Will probably never get one.”


“But it’s okay,” Wendy says. “You know why? Because I’ve got the power of the people.”


She means that her show is watched by many people, which she — despite her disbelief over a lack of nominations — values more than she values an award.



“This show is exactly what I would be watching if I [weren’t] doing it,” Wendy says. “There’s nothing out there forced.”


True. But, as many people, even those who watch top-notch scripted shows that were snubbed, have noticed, your average awards show voters are not the same as your average viewer.


“I do the show from a place of good,” Wendy says. “With a kind heart. And nobody to pay my bills. I can’t get slick.”


Some would question how that part about a kind heart could be true, since Wendy mostly seems to revel in the misery of the rich and famous.


“I need this job. I didn’t grow up rich,” Wendy says. “I like it here on TV. With finery.”



“I’m saying what I think,” Wendy says, defending the things that she says on television. “What I think, a lot of people think. They’re just too afraid to say it.”


That sounds an awful lot like what certain demographics said about Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign.


Not everyone’s first thought is the worst possible thing that they could say.


Admittedly, sometimes, Wendy does speak the truth.


At other times, though, she says ridiculous things that no reasonable person with the facts would ever believe.


We’re talking about a woman who had the audacity to accuse Britney Spears of being a bad mother just months ago. Absurd.



Wendy also spoke on her show about her birthday.


“When you turn 54,” Wendy says. “A lot of times you don’t have a lot of people around you that you used to know or the people that nurtured you to get to that age do you know what I mean?”


“So,” Wendy announces. “My mom and dad are here, my best friend flew in from California. She’s in the office on my couch laying back.” 


“My sister Wanda is coming,” Wendy says. “Our son, Kevin, he’s 17 and he’s in Chicago now on business.”


Some are kind of at a loss to think of what sort of business a 17-year-old could possibly have, unless he’s looking at colleges.


“You look for the things that make you happy,” Wendy says. “It’s not about gifts after a certain age.”


Wendy Williams is estimated to have a net worth of about $ 60 million. So … we’re not sure what her family could possibly buy her.



Also speaking on her show, Wendy says that she’s very happy in her relationship.


“My husband and I still hold hands,” Wendy reveals. “And we love each other very, very much.”


Less than a year ago, Wendy Williams stood by her husband amidst ugly cheating rumors.


“I turned a messy little radio career into this mess,” Wendy says. “I feel very, very happy.”


Well, she’s successful, so she should be happy.


But … being happy and having a show that deserves an Emmy are not the same thing. Though the shows most deserving of awards are not always nominated.
